Tracy Grimshaw has responded to “appalling” comments made about her by a travel boss. Picture: Supplied“Jayson Westbury's language was appalling and he's paid the price for it,” the presenter said in a statement during Wednesday night’s program.resigned yesterday and apologised for his “poor choice of words”
“I mean that virtually, of course. I wouldn’t want to invoke any violence on anyone,” he added. “But, I mean, some of the behaviour and some of the language that’s being used on that program is just outrageous.” “As CEO of the Australian Federation of Travel Agents he was supposed to help them navigate the devastating effects of this COVID-19 pandemic and somehow address the scathing criticism from customers who now couldn't travel and couldn't get refunds,” Grimshaw said in her response.Mr Westbury’s comments were made during a webinar that addressed how the travel industry was dealing with negative publicity during the coronavirus pandemic.
But some customers have reported having trouble getting their money back, with travel agencies either refusing to pay up or offering only credit notes instead.
There is no excuse for what he said however, it is a dog act by ACA slamming the industry the way it did. Pathetic and scum news reporting.
There's now an online tafe course 'Keeping your job the day after Grinshaw' . Educating CEOs and GMs on how to respond to ACurrentAffair9 accusations. They are also creating a course for shonky tradesmen and fortune tellers.
